That response from Brian Murray is very much PATHETIC.. Ubuntu 12.04 is the LTS and is supposed to be challenging Mountain Lion 10.8, how you expect people to use Ubuntu as main OS, if the answer is "this has to be fixed first in 13.04"?? this is pretty much a lazy and pathetic answer. BTw I have a PhD in Computer Eng so I know what I am talking about. This attitude is bad.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please change the bug tag from verification-needed to verification-done. If it does not, change the tag to verification-failed. In either case, details of your testing will help us make a better decision.

Installed it from the precise-proposed repo and added my facebook account.
Now the account is listed but no Messages show up. And in the Settings it still says "Authorize with Facebook",
not "authorized" like the Twitter account. Already deleted the config files, but it didn't help.
Any Ideas?

I tested on my wifes netbook. Installed the proposed updates for gwibber, removed account, cleared caches and related gwibber config files. Added the account and now it adds correctly but gwibber is not getting any data from facebook. The gwibber window stays blank.

Same here (12.04 on x86-64), just as described in comments #58 and #59 above, account now is added but gwibber does not aquire data and in account settings it still says "authorize with facebook". Should a new bug report be opened?

I installed the updates today in Ubuntu 12.04 which included updates for Gwibber and for the 3 plugins: Facebook, Twitter, and identi.ca.

Gwibber is now version 3.4.2.

After completing the update I did the following:
1. Removed Gwibber from within Facebook 'My Apps'.
2. Added a Facebook account again to Gwibber. It looked better than before except...
3. No Facebook entries appeared in Gwibber.
4. I looked at Accounts again in Gwibber. There is now a Facebook account in the list of accounts, unlike before today. Twitter says 'el_gallo_azul has been authorised by Twitter' like it did before today's updates, but Facebook still has the 'Authorise' button and the text 'Authorise with Facebook'.
5. I then restarted the computer, removed Gwibber from Facebook's 'My Apps', and added a Facebook account to Gwibber again.
6. Right now, the Facebook account still shows in Gwibber's list of accounts, but no Facebook entries appear on Gwibber's home page, and Gwibber's Facebook account still appears as in point 4 above.

Hi every body! I think Gwibber dev should take the bug more seriouly than that according to the importance we place on it.
I have the same problem and I have let my launchpad page active for a week and up until now nothing appends. So hope Gwibber dev will solve that soon.

It seems it's happening again in Ubuntu 12.10. It was working fine till the last Ubuntu update one or two weeks ago.
I tried to remove Facebook account and recreate it, but it's still opening the browser and showing the 'Success' message.
